Attention Family! I've been saying it for years, now I am preparing you for when it happens, I am retiring from cooking in less than 5 years. The only thing I will make is my morning coffee, and that is only because I am too lazy to get dressed and go out for it!

MK's "I have a cold, but I don't want chicken soup" Soup

MK had a bad cold last week and wanted a bowl of soup, but not boring old chicken soup.  So she started naming some ingredients, and K chimed in with some, and the soup pot came out!  This soup is so good, and if you make some cheesy squash biscuits to serve along side, it will make anyone feel better!

1 tbsp. butter
2 carrots, cut into bite size pieces
1 good size onion, cut into bite size pieces
2 stalks celery, cut into bite size pieces
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 can hominy
1 cup frozen corn
1 can Rotel tomatoes
1 can chicken stock
1/2 lb Italian sausage, browned

Put a tablespoon of butter in the soup pot.  Add carrots, onions, celery, and garlic.  Cook over medium heat until veggies start to soften.  Add hominy, corn, tomatoes, chicken stock, and sausage. simmer for 20 minutes (while the biscuits bake) and serve in big mugs.  If you didn't make the biscuits, you can serve with parmesean cheese.

Follow this link for the biscuits, you won't be sorry!
